Version 1.1 Notes:
=============

Made an adjustment to the contact line to better hide the tails with Large Convoys.


==============
GENERAL NOTES:
==============
This Mod is to be used with Rub 1.45 via the JCGME program.

What it does:

I was a fan of IUB 1.02 and liked the way it handled the Contacts on the NAV Map when you have the Update Map Contacts option selected. When I made the move to RUB 1.45 I was not a fan of the way that was handled so I came up with these series of options to use.

All contacts are gray and will need to be IDed manually.

My thanks goes out to all those that did the heavy lifting in making the discoveries on how this actually worked and made the actual files. I can only take credit for the contact line.tga that replaces the RuB 1.45 Dashed one.



=================================
Explanation of the 3 variations:
=================================

NavMap Cont (No Tails No Dash)
------------------------------

What this does is allow you to see the contacts on the NAV Map and when you zoom in you will see the actual ship shapes. All contacts are black so you will need to ID.

You will not get a Tail on the Nav Map Icon when Zoomed out.
You will not get a Dash line for the sensors when you are zoomed in.
When submerged, you will get a very slightly broken contact line to the hydro contact. This file is used for both the tails and the hydro lines so there is no way to have a steady contact line. This is a massive difference from the RUB dashed line.

NavMap Cont (No Tails Only)
---------------------------

What this does is allow you to see the contacts on the NAV Map and when you zoom in you will see the actual ship shapes. All contacts are black so you will need to ID.

You will not get a Tail on the Nav Map Icon when Zoomed out.
You will get a Dash line for the sensors when you are zoomed in.
When submerged, you will get a very slightly broken contact line to the hydro contact. This file is used for both the tails and the hydro lines so there is no way to have a steady contact line. This is a massive difference from the RUB dashed line.

NavMap Cont (Tails)
-------------------

What this does is allow you to see the contacts on the NAV Map and when you zoom in you will see the actual ship shapes. All contacts are black so you will need to ID.

You will get a Tail on the Nav Map Icon when Zoomed out.
You will get a Dash line for the sensors when you are zoomed in.
When submerged, you will get a steady contact line to the hydro contact. This is the Stock IUB 1.02 version.



============
INSTALLATION:
============

There are 3 different versions of this mod. You can simply place all three in your MODS folder and use JCGME to install what ever version you like via JCGME.

I hope you enjoy this mod.
